Bibliography

This part of this European Standard specifies a method for the determination of vinylidene chloride monomer in food simulants. The method is applicable to aqueous food simulants, to the fatty food simulant olive oil and other fatty food simulants, simulants D, e.g. a mixture of synthetic triglycerides or sunflower oil or corn oil. The level of vinylidene chloride determined is expressed as milligrams of vinylidene chloride per kilogram of food simulant. The method is appropriate for the quantitative determination of vinylidene chloride at a level of 0,05 mg/kg.NOTEThis method was developed for the determination of vinylidene chloride in 15 % v/v aqueous ethanol, as required by the regulations in force at the time the development work was carried out. However, this method, developed for 15 (v/v) aqueous ethanol, should be applicable to the determination in 10 (v/v) aqueous ethanol.
